Webinar: Understanding and Managing Screen Time

When: April 21, 2022 from 7 - 8 p.m,

Description: Are they addicted? Why is it so hard for kids to put down devices? What do parents/guardians need to know about the digital world and how it affects their child’s development. Positive strategies to build connection with your kids through tech.


Webinar: Understanding Addiction and Addictive Behaviours

When: May 12, 2022 from 7 - 8 p.m,

Description: Looking at why kids can get stuck and how addictive behaviours may develop. Seeing the “function” behind the addiction, and how parents/guardians can support recovery without shame and guilt.
